W has been gone every night this week with v'ball and other activities. I have made sure to be in bed asleep when she gets home. She got home @11:00 last night and slept on couch again. Had decent civil conversation this morning about tax refund and kids, etc. I left early for work again, told her bye and left without pursuing her for kiss or waiting on her for one. For the past couple of weeks, she had been coming and giving me a kiss goodbye and goodnight, but no more. And it's OK.
I have posted a few times on pigskin's thread , as we are close in age and # of kids. My wife has not left yet, but the roller coaster remains. Things will be going well, we'll be getting along, and then things fall apart and it seems I'm back at square one. The up and down is so brutal. It makes it hard to monitor what is working and what is not. Rob said and pig said to expect it, maybe she is testing me. Sandi says do what works, not what feels right. The farther in this that I get, it gets harder to see what works and what doesn't. I know I am just beginning this journey and trying to follow the great advice that all have given. It helps to get some fine tuning directions from the vets to let me know if I'm on the right track or not. I am trying!
